In scalability testing, what does the "vertical scaling" approach involve?
- Adding more resources to a single node
- Distributing workload across multiple nodes
- Increasing the number of nodes in a cluster
- Optimizing the network communication
Vertical scaling involves adding more resources, such as CPU, memory, or storage, to a single node to improve its performance and capacity. It focuses on enhancing the capabilities of individual components rather than distributing the workload across multiple nodes. This approach is often limited by the hardware constraints of a single machine.
